Runaway heiress, Pepper Grady, is in charge of her own destiny, one that doesn’t include being ruled by an over-bearing man like her father. Pepper will never follow in her mother’s footsteps and accept marriage to a man who can’t remain faithful. She’s held firm to her convictions. Until she meets Nick Guerrero, a hunky, Latino dynamo who bears her father’s supreme confidence, that same Delgado arrogance. He’s intriguing and romantic—a man she decides to have an affair with, but without falling in love.

She has no idea that he’s traveled to Grassy Key to take her back to Isla del Diablo and make her his wife in order to please his dying father. Ñico seduces her into complying with his plans without realizing he’s the one who’s seduced. He wants her with the passion Fernandez males are known for, but he doesn’t believe in love. After all, passion fades and he is his father’s son, so he can’t promise what she desperately wants…a lifetime of love and fidelity.

“The book itself has two story lines which though both are quite in depth, flow nicely back and forth.” -Elizabeth R.

On the utopian world called the Provider, the Deagron Maker waits for destiny. 10,000 years ago, the deagrons reigned supreme. If left unchecked, the alien creatures’ insatiable hunger for the life giving Source was certain to obliterate the Provider. Forced to the brink of extinction, man discovered the power to shift the Source, spawning the first race, known then and now, as Guardians.

Emergence of the Guardians turned the tide in the fight for survival, vanquishing the Deagron Maker and its spawn, ending thousands of years of unabated carnage. Or so it is believed, for it is recorded in the Deeds. In the 6,000 years that followed, Citizens attained enlightenment, reincarnating as one of the four races- Guardian, Shifter, Healer or Mystic- and living the Certain Way as decreed by their beloved deity and planet: the Provider.

As a present day Guardian, Steffor’s role in society remains that of protector, defending Citizens from, while mundane in comparison to the deagrons, the inherent dangers associated with life in perpetual wilderness, coexisting with a myriad of lethal predators. When not serving as a resident hero, Steffor spends his time training for the Dive. Having finally qualified for this year’s championship, manifesting his future fame is close at hand.

That is, if it were not for the events, long in the coming, manifesting a different future for Steffor and his peaceful society. A future in direct lockstep with destiny. On Antium, a world ruled by the ancient and merciless Church of Salvation, humankind has all but lost the will to grow, to dream, to aspire for a transcendent existence. Armed with the motive, the technology and the capital means, Stalling Alterian and his cadre of gifted conspirators lead a fertile insurrection against the global theocracy.

Committed to saving their society, or die trying, the crucial and final phase of their clandestine mission only moments away from completion, Stalling discovers a fatal error in his calculations that threatens to destroy it all. Absent of any solution and the enemy rapidly closing in, can Stalling impose his technological miracle onto humanity before the noose pulls tight? Stalling and Steffor inhabit different worlds, yet they are connected. Together, but unbeknownst to one of them, they race towards an inevitable, if unimaginable collision.

Will Karen become victim number twenty-four? Or does the prey hide a secret that will bring her predator down?

*******SPOILER ALERT*****SPOILER ALERT*********

Reading the descriptions of TAKEN! 2-6 may spoil the twist ending of TAKEN! TAKEN! 2 – Young Blood: There’s a killer at large in the Colorado community of Eagle’s Bluff, and the death toll is frightening.

Three families have been brutally murdered, but what really sets the town on edge is the fact that the killer is one of their own.

Gregory Michael Rouse, a seventeen-year-old loner, was on the outside looking in among the affluent residents. Gregory just never seemed to fit and was often the butt of cruel jokes. Now, no one’s laughing after Gregory surfaces as the prime suspect in the slayings. Dr. White knows that Gregory’s days of freedom are numbered, because the only thing more dangerous than the man they hunt, is her husband.

TAKEN! 3 – Regret: After Sandra Jenkins’ six-year-old daughter was taken, the young mother trusted the authorities to get her little girl back. But when the man who holds the only possible lead to her daughter’s whereabouts is set free, Sandra goes after him. Hours later, the man is dead and Sandra is following a trail that she hopes will lead to her daughter, Chrissie.

As the young mother’s quest makes the news, it catches the attention of Dr. White and her husband. As the path to her daughter grows more dangerous, Sandra gains new allies and closes in on the men who have Chrissie. The odds against her are high, and when Sandra walks into a trap, her only hope of rescue is Dr. White and her husband. What comes next is a violent climax that forces husband and wife to break all the rules and, in the end, will leave them changed forever.

TAKEN! 4 – Mirror Image: When Jeffrey Mitchell abducted eighteen-year-old Hanna Jones, he had every intention of killing her. But now, years later, as husband and wife they play games that have only losers. Dr. White and her husband share a similar past, but when these two couples collide, only one pair can come out on top.

TAKEN! 5 – Young Love: Couples meet in many ways, but when beautiful, young, Jessica White awakened to find herself naked and tied to a bed, the last thing on her mind was romance. However, terror soon morphed into an intense fascination with her captor and her innate understanding of human nature allowed her to see past his actions and into his heart.

Meanwhile, Jessica’s father was being threatened by a serial killer with a personal grudge. But Dr. White is in luck, because his daughter’s made a new friend, and he may be the only thing deadlier than the man that stalks him.

TAKEN! 6 – Red, White and Blue: When Dr. Jessica White is taken captive by fugitive, Sebastian Rojo, her husband will stop at nothing to get her back. Aided by a sexy female bounty hunter named Blue Steele, and the ever-efficient Carly Zhang, he races against time as a winter storm threatens and corrupt government officials plot his wife’s death.

With time running out and a dozen armed men against them, he’ll do anything to ensure his wife’s safe return and, in the end, Sebastian Rojo will learn the folly of abducting the wife of a man who is quite possibly the deadliest man alive.

The Stair in the Wall
by Claire Ortalda
Rating: 5.0 Stars
Genre: Children and Middle GradePrice: $0.00 Save $4.99Subject to change back to full price at any time.

Every person and creature in The Stair in the Wall — as in life — has their own little quirks and faults..and you can be sure someone is going to point out each and every one of them. But in Greenwood — the world 9-year-old Sylvia discovers when she finds the stair in the wall of her grandparents’ forbidding house — people’s differences are treated with love.

It all begins when Sylvia’s adventure-loving mother sets out to see the world – alone. Sylvia’s sad Papawhiskers buries himself in his bird collection. And Sylvia is packed off to her grandparents’ forbidding mansion, where everything she does — and everything she is, with her mocha-colored skin and long curly black hair — seems to be wrong.

Until, that is, she discovers the stair in the wall. Every child from a broken family wants to bring her parents back together through her own efforts. And every child dreams of a group of friends – however “funny” and strange they are – who band together to solve each other’s problems.

Both wishes come true in The Stair in the Wall, a journey through a world teeming with helpful animals, scary ghosts and the twisting by-ways of a child’s imagination. Is the community of Greenwood really Sylvia’s own dream world? Is the gray wraith in reality Sylvia’s sadness at her separation from her parents? Each reader must make up her or his own mind.

Book Of The Day

Cheyenne Elias has inherited a child. A boy she doesn’t know and doesn’t particularly want; a boy whose mother was once Cheyenne’s most hated person in the world. There are a million reasons to walk away: her anger, her past, her certainty that there is nothing benevolent in this act by a woman who almost killed her. But abandoning the boy to a system she barely survived is not an option…

Will Blackheart has lost everything. His SEAL team, his country, and—upon occasion—his mind. Worse, he’s lost something that has the capacity to kill thousands. Left for dead in the Afghan desert, Will has risen solely for the purpose of regaining that which was taken...and to punish those who dared take it.

His only lead is the son of a dead woman. Her only goal is to save a child. As they come together in a clash of anger, mistrust and potent, unwanted desire, Will and Cheyenne must put aside their differences and navigate the endgame of a woman for whom nothing was taboo…
